Barkyard n' Brews

What a fantastic place for dog and beer lovers. I can’t think of anything more relaxing than sipping a nice draft beer while watching your doggo and others running around being goofy. Humans are admitted free/ pups pay a fee for the day. Some days there is a food truck. If they don’t have a food truck on the day you visit, most nearby restaurants and breweries are very dog friendly.

I went to Backyard and Brews on Saturday night for a comedy show they were hosting, with proceeds going to Big Dog Ranch Rescue—such a great cause! I didn’t bring my dog, but this place is a perfect spot if you have a pup that isn’t dog-reactive. It’s like a brewery meets a dog park, creating a super fun and laid-back atmosphere. The staff was fantastic—they noticed we were standing and went out of their way to bring us chairs, which was a really nice touch. The place was surprisingly clean, considering there were dogs running around everywhere. The food truck they had out front was also a highlight; we got the steak tacos, and they were absolutely incredible. The only downsides were the restroom situation (there’s only one, so the line was long every time) and the parking—it’s rough. I ended up parking near a storage unit place and spent the whole night worried my car would get towed. Overall, this is such a fun, unique spot, especially if you have a dog! Just plan ahead for parking and restroom breaks.

Barkyard n’ Brews is a dream spot for dog lovers! It’s the perfect mix of fun and relaxing—an off-leash dog park combined with a laid-back beer garden. The staff is super friendly and clearly loves dogs, which made the whole experience even better. The space is clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed with plenty of room for pups to run and play safely. There’s a great selection of local beers, ciders, and even non-alcoholic options, so there’s something for everyone while your dog has the time of their life. I love that they also host events and have a community feel to the place. It’s hard to find spots where both you and your dog can genuinely enjoy yourselves, but this place nails it. We just renewed our annual pass for the 2nd year in a row!

What a gem in the heart of Fort Lauderdale. I never wanted to take my dog to a dog park because you unfortunately can’t trust other dog owners. They make sure dogs are properly trained and well behaved and show no signs of aggression. They have a large clean space for them to run and socialize as well as many chairs and tables to hang out while they do. Their membership is very affordable and worth it. I wish all dog parks would be like this.

Barkyard N' Brews is an absolute gem for both dog lovers and beer enthusiasts alike, and let me tell you why. From the moment you step foot into this canine haven, it's evident that the staff is not only helpful and friendly but genuinely adores our four-legged friends. The dog park itself is a testament to their dedication, always impeccably clean with lush turf that invites our furry companions to frolic and play freely. What sets Barkyard N' Brews apart is their unwavering commitment to safety; there's always a watchful eye ensuring that every pup remains safe and happy, with zero tolerance for any unwanted altercations. But wait, there's more! Barkyard N' Brews isn't just your average dog park. It's a vibrant community hub where dogs and their owners can come together to enjoy a plethora of events. From food trucks serving up delectable treats to their onsite brewery offering top-notch beverages, there's never a dull moment. Huge kudos to the owners, particularly Stacey and Robert, who infuse this establishment with their passion and dedication, making it a must-visit destination. Their partnerships with other dog vendors only enhance the experience, ensuring that both pups and humans alike are treated to something truly special. Whether you prefer to relax indoors, catching the game in the cozy seating area, or soak up the sun outdoors while your furry friend gets their exercise, Barkyard N' Brews has you covered. It's a doggy dog world out there, and Barkyard N' Brews is undoubtedly the place to be if you want to experience the very best for you and your beloved pooch. Trust me, you're missing out if you haven't paid them a visit yet.

This is an amazing place to bring the fur babies for a good time, while we enjoy some brews and the DJ playing good music 🎶.

This place is a DREAM COME TRUE! I never have to decide between going out for food and beers or taking my beagles to the park ever again, Barkyard N' Brews is the perfect combination of both. I absolutely love how big a space they have to play in off-leash (HUGE is an understatement! The photos do not do it justice!), and my Bella especially loves the splash pad! She is obsessed!!! The beer selection they have is fantastic, and the rotating food trucks are awesome. Also, whoever thought of separating the eating area from the park area but in a way I can still watch my pups is a genius! My Bella is a notorious food thief and this is always a big concern when we go places. Humans can comfortably enjoy their food while their dogs play within plain view. The substantial hours they’re open enable me to come by no matter how busy I get. The owners really thought of everything, and top of all this, they are superrr kind and welcoming. I really cannot say enough good things about this place! I will be here every single week! (I highly recommend the yearly membership!) Thanks Barkyard N’ Brews!

Our new baby LOVED coming here, meeting new friends & especially playing on the splash pad. We couldn't get him away from it 🤣 It was super hot out in July, but they had shade, fans & misters for the humans, plus refreshing craft cocktails. We'll definitely be bringing him back!
